Scott and SadieWhat temperature do you like your shower? Do you like it scalding hot? Or do you like a nice cold shower to wake you up?
A survey was taken on Reddit and it got nearly 4,000 responses. Here are the results:
1. 44% said they like it “Roasty-Toasty”
2. 33% said “Warm”
3. 10% said “Fiery Hot”
4. 8% said “Lukewarm”
5. 3% said “Cold”
And the rest answered, “I only take dust baths, for I am a chinchilla.” Because of course they did, it’s Reddit.
But the 3% who said they like cold showers might be getting some surprising health benefits. Some studies say a blast of cold water can boost your immune system . . . relieve muscle soreness . . . and reduce migraines.
And in case you wanted your information from dermatologists, rather than an internet survey, the ideal shower temperature is between 98 and 105 degrees.
